Replace Your Laptop Fan

If your laptop's fans suddenly emit a different, loud, and unsettling rattle or buzzing noise, you're facing an issue.

The problem typically revolves around malfunctioning fan bearings. In most cases, resolving this problem involves replacing the fan. While it's technically possible to repair jammed bearings, this process tends to be more time-consuming than simply purchasing and installing a new fan.

Swapping out the fan for a fresh one isn't overly complicated, but it requires some familiarity with laptop repairs. While the fundamental principle applies universally to all laptops, the specific procedures can vary among different laptop models from various manufacturers.
